Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart novel Chapter 102

He could still remember Emelia's red dress, her luscious red lips, and the determined look on her face that day.

Since then, Julian had developed some strange spite against women clad in showy apparel or heavy makeup, especially those who wore bright red lipsticks.

He felt like he was almost driven insane by Emelia.

The thing was, he had never seen her wearing makeup that was not light and fresh. In their three years of relationship, she always looked like a gentle and virtuous housewife.

The only time she was all dressed up in front of him had left him with no good memories.

The divorce paper she threw to him in front of all those people at the party made him lose face and also traumatized him.

Sensing Julian's glare, Ezra raised his hands and apologized, "Sorry, sorry. I shouldn't have brought it up."

His words soothed Julian a little.

The three then went on focusing on their dinner gathering. Ezra asked when he found that Julian was checking his phone constantly, "Are you in a hurry?"

"What do you mean?" Julian returned him a question.

Ezra pointed at Julian's phone and said, "Seeing that you've been checking your phone, I thought you may have an appointment later."

Julian was speechless.

He couldn't tell them that he was waiting for Emelia's message, could he?

He could tell that the way he reacted earlier tonight definitely made Emelia sense that he got angry, but why wasn't she checking on him? Not even sending a text message?

He waited and waited. But still, there were no new messages, nothing.

"No." Julian fobbed off Ezra's inquiry.

Ezra exchanged a look with Arthur and said nothing more.

After the gathering ended, Julian drove away first. Ezra went along with Arthur.

Arthur pondered for a while before heaving a long sigh, "It seems that Julian can't accept that Emelia was totally unmoved by what happened tonight."

Apparently, Arthur and Ezra had long seen through Julian's charade.

Ezra leaned against the car lazily. "Maybe he hasn't realized that Emelia is serious about cutting the cord with him.

"He still believed that Emelia cares about him none the less."

Arthur shrugged. "When will he realize that then? When Emelia is with some other man?"

Ezra answered helplessly, "Who knows?"

"If he really waits until then, it would be too late," Arthur sighed.

Perhaps when they were together, Emelia's submissive attitude gave Julian an illusion that her world would always revolve around him.

Hence, Julian still held his head high, not deigning to reality.

Julian patiently waited for Emilia's message for a whole night but got nothing. Only then did he realize that Emelia probably didn't care if he was angry or not.

She didn't care about him anymore.

Before, she could sense even the slightest mood changes of his. But now, she didn't care anymore.

Meanwhile, Emelia not only didn't care about Julian's feelings but was infuriated by Julian's rude actions.

Emelia actually took a whole new look at Julian when he offered to help her with the bank statement and kicked out Oliver and Taylor for her.

But Julian ruined Emelia's good impression on him when he stormed out last night.

As the saying went, "A leopard can't change his spots." Julian could never lose his cockiness.

On Saturday night, Emelia attended the charity dinner with Viggo.

Nina helped her pick out a nice and simple black dress. It was backless but not excessively revealing.
